We're especially excited about TCM's salute to this tyke who grew up to be one of the best noir baddies. Do you recognize him?
Alice Faye was so angry at the way FALLEN ANGEL was edited to promote Darnell and minimize her role that she drove off the studio lot leaving her keys and a letter to Zanuck which she called still "unprintable" in the 70's.
